Beautiful walking trails in the country. I have been going there for years and have rarely seen another person there. Quiet and peaceful.

Rarely have we seen other people on these trails. Very peaceful. On several visits we've seen deer and a wide variety of birds. Quite a few snakes as well.

This is a nice place to come for a walk. There are very few visitors most days. Today there were only three cars when I arrived. I only saw two people on the trails. I hiked the Red Trail today, which is a nice 2 mile walk when combined with the yellow Trail. For a Wildlife Preserve though you see very little wildlife. I saw evidence of owls and heard a woodpecker and heard a few wild birds, but that was it. There is no entrance fee though they suggest a donation of $4. Also the Buckley Wildlife Sanctuary is now run by Life Adventure Center of Woodford County. Basically this is a good place to come if you want to get away from it all for a little while and just have some solitude in nature.

The great outdoors away from it all! Bird blind (heated in winter, cooled in summer), around 5 miles of hiking trails, wildlife viewing opportunities, complete with sheltered group picnic area and flush toilets.

Awesome get away for an easy hike through forest preserve. Outdoor pavilion with bathroom perfect for a picnic lunch. Other trails amble around picturesque pond. Cool bird blind to get up close to wild critters that visit feeders. No exhibits or programming but a great place to get out in the natural world. Great for birders! A little out of the way but close enough to Lexington and Frankfort to be worth the brief drive!
